US mint sets 1958 and before are double sets so a 1957 will have 2 of each coin with a face value of $3.64. This was done so both sides of each coin from each mint could be displayed in the cardboard holders that came with the set.

What is the difference between a 1961 proof set and a 1961 special mint set?

Special mint sets were produced in 1965, 1966 and 1967. You are probably refering to the uncirculated mint set produced by the mint as a collector set for most years since 1947. The difference between a proof set and a mint set is this; the proof coin is struck with specially prepared dies that are polished and free from nicks and scratches. This gives the coin a mirror like appearance. Coins in a mint set are just everyday coins struck for circulation but are packaged for sale to collectors as examples of the coins minted that year. In 1961 they minted a proof set which consisted of a 5 coin proof set and and a mint set which consisted of two 5 coin uncirculated sets with one from the denver mint and one from the philadelphia mint.

What is the value of a 1957 uncirculated mint coin set?

The U.S. did not make proof sets in 1967, only special mint sets. The coins were copper-nickel except for the half dollar which was 40% silver. If you have a special mint set its value is about $10 retail. With the price of silver where it is you have 15 to 20 bucks in silver alone. If these is the 1967 Candien proof set i have seen them go for close to 50 bucks on eBay and that's starting the biding at a penny and watching it rise. I personal think the value is in how cool each coin is Candians seem to have more intresting coin designs than Amercain coins
